Moisturizers -Garnier - Pure Shine Control Moisturizer
neen2 5/26/2006 10:48:00 AM
I really love this. It keeps my skin so smooth and matte. It has a nice gel type texture and does seem to provide moisture but is controlling my oilies(I have combo acne prone skin with pores that clog easily). I have been using serious skin Q10 and spectro acne BP, but when I added this my pores shrunk and things really cleared up. Makeup goes on top really well. It is an easy squeeze tube that dispenses well and hygienically. Great product, reasonably priced.

Treatments -Garnier - PureA Night Treatment
neen2 5/26/2006 10:43:00 AM
So far I am really liking this. I tried it after using the day one for awhile and really liking it. It felt a little masky when I first put it on at night, but in the morning my skin is smooth and my pores are tiny. My breakouts have gone, blackheads and whiteheads gone. I am also using the day version of this, spectro acne BP, and serious skin Q10 along with this, but I was using them before and just added the garnier pure A and that is when my skin REALLY improved. My skin isn't even over dry at all. I hope this is an HG-I will update if it continues to perform!

Lotions/ Creams -St. Ives - Collagen/Elastin Lotion
neen2 4/26/2006 10:05:00 PM
I stray to other lotions but I keep coming back to this. It is a staple in my house. It works even in the dead of winter and during and after pregnancy when you skin is stretched and irritated. I have used the scented and unscented, and I prefer the scented which is quite mild soapy/lotion scent-the unscented reminds me of white glue for some reason. This lotion is also cheap-less than $5 CDN and a bottle lasts over a month-as close to HG that I have found!

Gels/Soaps -Dove - Cool Moisture Beauty Bar
neen2 4/26/2006 9:59:00 PM
I am addicted to this soap. It smells so cool, fresh and cucumbery! It is as moisturizing as all dove bars, which seem to make my skin very soft and smooth. This soap is cheap, lasts a decent amount of time even with daily use-Note to new dove users: keep this soap dry between uses as it dissapears really quick if you don't.

Blush -Clinique - Soft-Pressed Powder Blusher in Mocha Pink
neen2 4/26/2006 9:56:00 PM
This is a good blush. It stays on forever, doesn't clog my pores, and if you use the right brush, the color level is easy to control. I like this color because it looks like a natural "flush". The freebie brush is like most, not the best but it does work ok with the blush. I wish they would phase out the old green plastic cases though.

Lip Treatments -Clinique - Superbalm Lip Treatment
neen2 4/26/2006 9:52:00 PM
I WISH I had tried this at the beginning of winter as I could have avoided suffering through chapped lips all winter! This is my new HG lip treatment-it goes on SO smooth, gives a lightweight gloss, stays on and protects so well. It has no discernable odor or taste, and it even looks good as a clear gloss, although I wear it to bed as a treatment. It has nice packaging, a squeeze out tube with an angled tip. I got this as a free sample when getting a makeover and I will definitely re-purchase even though it is a tad pricey, it lasts and lasts.

Sunscreen -Clinique - Super City Block SPF 25
neen2 1/18/2006 3:20:00 PM
This is my holy grail. The ONLY facial sunblock that does not break me out. I mix it with my foundation to apply and it is wonderful. Nice texture, goes on smooth, not greasy at all. A bit expensive, but I barely dented my tube from 3/4 of a year of use.

Eyeliner -Clinique - Brush-On Cream Liner in Black Honey
neen2 11/12/2005 12:33:00 AM
I LOVE this. It goes on very easily despite how awkward the brush looks. You can apply a thick or thin line easily, or make it light or dark. It has a bit of sparkle but it is not garish. The black honey colour is gorgeous and this stuff lasted-eyeliner often melts on me. I hope they make this in other colours soon!This could be my HG.

Moisturizers -Clinique - Turnaround Lotion Oil Free
neen2 11/12/2005 12:27:00 AM
I really like this. I use it most days, in the morning after cleanse/tone and using DD gel. I find I only need a tiny amount-just a small drop and apply it to nose, chin, forehead mainly. It keeps my skin smooth and seems to make my pores smaller(I am prone to blocked pores). I find if I stop using it for more than a few days my skin loses its glow and looks dull.It is expensive, but it really lasts as you don't need much.

Eyeliner -Clinique - Brush-On Cream Liner in Black Honey
neen2 11/9/2005 3:13:00 PM
I love this. I was skeptical about the brush but it is very controllable. You can apply as light or dark as you please. It is a gorgeous colour, like the black honey lip colour but better somehow. And it stays put-my skin is somewhat oily and it does not dissapear. I want this in other colours too!!!

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
neen2 6/15/2005 6:12:00 PM
I tried this before and thought it was aggravating my skin-but it turns out it was my foundation. I really like this. It smells nice, feels really nice and light on the skin, moisturizes just the right amount(in the winter I like using moisture surge with this). The price is good, and the pump is convenient and hygenic. I think this may be my HG...
